Laozi and the others were discussing who would be the emperor of the Heavenly Court. The position of the Heavenly Emperor was too important, and no one would give in to the other.
Zhunti said," Senior Brothers, the position of the Heavenly Emperor can be taken by the Maitreya Buddha of the West. The Maitreya Buddha is a man of great wisdom and great achievements. I think he will not disgrace the title of the Heavenly Emperor."”
Hearing Zhunti's words, Tongtian immediately jumped out and cursed,""You shameless Zhunti, how can you, a westerner, have the right to comment on my eastern affairs? What ability does that Maitreya Buddha have to be the Heavenly Emperor? It's best if he doesn't have any ideas about my East.”Tongtian certainly knew what Zhunti was thinking. Zhunti wanted to use the matter of the Celestial Emperor to intervene in the East. His cultivation was already the worst among all the Saints. It was unrealistic to think that he could enter the East by force. There were two Sages in the West, but there were three in the East, including the Three Pure Ones. In addition to Hong Meng, Goddess Nvywa, and the others, there were countless Sages.
It was a fact that Zhunti and the Three Pure Ones were fellow disciples. However, being fellow disciples did not mean that they had the same heart. They all wanted their own orthodoxies to be passed down. Orthodoxy was the most important thing for Sages.
Hearing Tongtian's words, Zhunti's face turned ashen, but he quickly recovered his original seemingly friendly expression and said,""Senior Brother Tongtian, you can't say that. The matter of the Heavenly Emperor directly affects the entire Untainted Land. Of course, I have to take care of it. Now you don't want me to take care of this matter.”
Zhunti's words were quite vicious. If Tongtian denied that the West was in the Untainted Land, he would be charged with splitting the Untainted Land. As expected, Tongtian immediately understood the mystery in Zhunti's words. He didn't know what to say for a moment and could only glare at Zhunti with angry eyes. However, this was just child's play for Zhunti, who was as thick-skinned as the Untainted Land.
In the end, I couldn't stand it anymore. I came out and continued Cundi's words,"" Junior Brother Zhunti, you're wrong. Junior Brother Tongtian certainly didn't mean that. He's just thinking for the sake of Untainted Land and doesn't want some random people to manage it. Don't think too much about it.”After saying that, he winked at Tongtian and Primordial.
Tongtian and Primordial certainly stood out and nodded. They didn't want Zhunti to take advantage of them. Zhunti's face turned as red as a pig's liver when he heard his father's words. The meaning in Laozi's words was also very clear. It was obvious that the West might fail to intervene in the matter of the Celestial Thearch.
If he insisted on letting a westerner become the Heavenly Emperor, he would only be belittling himself. Why? Because Laozi said that Tongtian didn't want some messy people to manage Untainted Land. If he dragged the westerners to be the Heavenly Emperor, wouldn't he say that the westerners were messy people? Such an extremely demeaning thing was completely impossible for a Saint to do.
Jieyin saw that his junior brother was being bullied like this, so of course, he, as a senior brother, had to come out and help. Jie Yin stood up with a pained expression and said,""Senior brothers, the west is poor. I just want to have a place in the east. The east is so big. I think you won't be stingy, right?”Jieyin first talked about his sufferings in the West, hoping to gain their sympathy. Then, he praised the good things in the East. In this way, the Sages should not press him anymore.
He had a good plan, but Yuan Shi said,""Aiya, Junior Brother Jieyin, how can you say that? The East is indeed very big. Of course, we won't be stingy. We've long wanted to give you a place, but someone always makes us feel uneasy and always wants to ferry people from the East to the West.”
Yuan Shi's words made Jieyin's expression even more miserable. He even hated his junior brother a little now. If not for him, his place's reputation would not be so bad.
" You see, there are always people from the east being sent to the west. If we don't do anything, I'm afraid the people from the east will blame us. So, after weighing the pros and cons, we can only let you suffer." Sigh!" After saying that, he shook his head, making people think that this was really the case.
Laozi and Tongtian nodded solemnly. It seemed to be the case. However, they all knew that this was just an excuse. Would the saints be afraid of the xiuzhe blaming them? If that was really the case, it would definitely be the number one headline in the entire Primordial World.
Jieyin saw this and knew that he would not stand a chance in the west. He shook his head. Zhunti still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jieyin. He could only look at Laozi and the others unwillingly.
Without Jieyin, Zhunti seemed to be better off. However, after dealing with the external enemies, there would be internal problems. No one wanted the Heavenly Emperor to be occupied by others. The three of them began to discuss while Jieyin and Zhunti watched coldly from the side.
Just as the three of them were discussing, space distorted. Hongjun came out. Hongjun said as soon as he came out,"Is there anyone to choose?"”The few of them shook their heads, indicating that they had no candidates yet.
At this time, Zhunti suddenly jumped out and said to Hongjun,""Teacher, since there's no candidate yet, let teacher choose.”Hearing Zhunti's words, Laozi and the other two changed their expressions and thought,""Not good, this thief has found an empty space.”
Hongjun looked at them. Laozi and the others could only come out and say helplessly,"Everything will be decided by Teacher." After saying that, he glared fiercely at Zhunti, who just sneered.
"In that case, I'll choose."”After saying that, he looked at a boy beside him and said,"Haotian, you will be the Heavenly Emperor.”
Laozi and the others looked at Haotian and felt more or less at ease. They were worried that Hongjun would be biased towards one of them. But now, that boy had nothing to do with any of them. Besides, he was just a boy. Although they all called Hongjun teacher, the meaning was different. Seeing that the boy's cultivation was so low, he was only a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. He was relatively easy to control. Although he could not directly control the Heavenly Court, he could still indirectly control it.
The few of them had their own thoughts, but they were all about the same. They all wanted to have a good relationship with that boy so that they could make things easier for their own sect in the future.
When the boy heard Hongjun's words, he was very happy, but he did not show it. He was also smart. He knew that if he became the Heavenly Emperor, he would probably have a lot of trouble in the future. He had to think of some ways. Thinking of this, he came out and knelt down to Hongjun. He said to Hongjun,"Teacher, how could Haotian be the Heavenly Emperor? Even if I become the Heavenly Emperor, I'm afraid I can't control the people below because of my low cultivation.”
Hongjun looked at Haotian, who was kneeling below, expressionlessly. No one knew what he was thinking. Finally, he said,""In that case, I understand what you mean. Then I will give you the Supreme Heavenly Mirror and the Heaven Measuring Ruler. They are all at the Xiantian level." After saying that, he took out a mirror carved with nine golden dragons and a ruler that looked like white jade and handed it to Hao Tian. When Good Sky saw these two magic treasures, he almost laughed in his heart. He said,"Thank you for your grace, Teacher." With that, he took the two magic treasures.
Laozi and the others looked at the magic weapon that Haotian had obtained from Hongjun and could not help but feel jealous. Magic weapons of the Connate level were precious to them. Now, they were given to Haotian, who had a low cultivation. They felt a little unfair. However, when he thought of how much Hongjun valued him, he could only be helpless. After all, he would be a Heavenly Emperor in the future. If he did not have something to suppress the people below, they might rebel at some point. They were even more determined to build a good relationship with Haotian.
